2014-02-26 | Also provide an option for setting the curl connection timeout | Eelco Dolstra | |
2013-09-02 | Add an option to limit the log output of builders | Eelco Dolstra | |
This is mostly useful for Hydra to deal with builders that get stuck in an infinite loop writing data to stdout/stderr. | |||
2013-08-26 | Fix typos, especially those that end up in the Nix manual | Ivan Kozik | |
2013-07-03 | Manual: auto-optimise-store is disabled by default | Eelco Dolstra | |
2013-06-05 | Update the default binary cache URL to cache.nixos.org | Eelco Dolstra | |
2013-05-07 | Add option ‘extra-binary-caches’ | Eelco Dolstra | |
This allows providing additional binary caches, useful in scripts like Hydra's build reproduction scripts, in particular because untrusted caches are ignored. | |||
2013-01-02 | Reinstate the http://nixos.org/binary-cache default for the binary-caches ↵ | Eelco Dolstra | |
setting | |||
2012-12-29 | Allow mounting a path in a different location in the chroot | Eelco Dolstra | |
Fixes #24. | |||
2012-12-21 | download-from-binary-cache: Use the channels of the calling user rather than ↵ | Eelco Dolstra | |
root This should make live easier for single-user (non-daemon) installations. Note that when the daemon is used, the "calling user" is root so we're not using any untrusted caches. | |||
2012-11-06 | Add an option ‘use-binary-caches’ | Eelco Dolstra | |
This allows disabling the use of binary caches, e.g. $ nix-build ... --option use-binary-caches false Note that $ nix-build ... --option binary-caches '' does not disable all binary caches, since the caches defined by channels will still be used. | |||
2012-10-03 | Drop support for running nix-worker in "slave" mode | Eelco Dolstra | |
AFAIK nobody uses this, setuid binaries are evil, and there is no good reason why people can't just run the daemon. | |||
2012-09-13 | nix-channel: Add option to force fetching of manifests | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-08-27 | Disable the binary cache substituter by default for now | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-08-01 | nix-channel: Use binary caches advertised by channels | Eelco Dolstra | |
Channels can now advertise a binary cache by creating a file <channel-url>/binary-cache-url. The channel unpacker puts these in its "binary-caches" subdirectory. Thus, the URLS of the binary caches for the channels added by root appear in /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/eelco/channels/binary-caches/*. The binary cache substituter reads these and adds them to the list of binary caches. | |||
2012-07-31 | Allow daemon users to override ‘binary-caches’ | Eelco Dolstra | |
For security reasons, daemon users can only specify caches that appear in the ‘binary-caches’ and ‘trusted-binary-caches’ options in nix.conf. | |||
2012-07-31 | Add an option ‘build-fallback’ (equivalent to the --fallback flag) | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-07-30 | Get rid of $NIX_BINARY_CACHES | Eelco Dolstra | |
You can use ‘--option binary-caches URLs’ instead. | |||
2012-07-26 | Merge branch 'master' into no-manifests | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-07-23 | Automatically optimise the Nix store when a new path is added | Eelco Dolstra | |
Auto-optimisation is enabled by default. It can be turned off by setting auto-optimise-store to false in nix.conf. | |||
2012-07-18 | Merge branch 'master' into no-manifests | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-07-17 | Allow disabling log compression | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-07-11 | Merge branch 'master' of github.com:NixOS/nix into no-manifests | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-07-09 | Install a nix.conf manpage | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-07-09 | download-from-binary-cache: add nix.conf options | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-05-29 | Add option ‘build-keep-log’ to enable/disable writing of build logs | Eelco Dolstra | |
Fixes #26. | |||
2012-05-09 | Document some nix-store subcommands | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-04-30 | * Add an option ‘build-use-substitutes’, which can be set to ‘false’ | Eelco Dolstra | |
to disable use of substitutes; i.e., force building from source. Fixes Nix/221. | |||
2011-11-03 | (no commit message) | Eelco Dolstra | |
2011-06-30 | doc: Fix typo. | Ludovic Courtès | |

2010-08-17 | * Document --cores in the manual. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2010-02-24 | * Disable fsync() in SQLite if the fsync-metadata option is set to | Eelco Dolstra | |
false. * Change the default for `fsync-metadata' to true. * Disable `fsync-metadata' in `make check'. | |||
2010-01-29 | * Added an option "fsync-metadata" to fsync() changes to | Eelco Dolstra | |
/nix/var/nix/db. * Removed the function writeStringToFile since it does (almost) the same thing as writeFile. | |||
2008-11-19 | * Remove references to Berkeley DB, including most of the | Eelco Dolstra | |
troubleshooting section. W00t. | |||
2007-10-29 | (no commit message) | Eelco Dolstra | |
2006-10-05 | * Manual. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2006-10-02 | * Manual updates (especially how nix-build makes testing packages much | Eelco Dolstra | |
easier; no longer need a helper expression). | |||
2006-08-21 | * Convert to DocBook 5. | Eelco Dolstra | |
* Use Jing for RelaxNG validation, xmllint seems buggy. | |||
2006-02-16 | * Allow the size of the GC reserved file to be specified in nix.conf | Eelco Dolstra | |
through the new `gc-reserved-space' option. | |||
2005-04-09 | * Document nix-channel. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2005-04-08 | * Lots of manual updates, in particular the new `nix-store --query' | Eelco Dolstra | |
options were documented, as well as the Nix configuration file. |
